I'm running WindowsXP and I've got 3 accounts on one
PC.

I have one account with administrative privileges that can make just
about any changes I want. The other two accounts are limited
accounts, that can access the applications except they can't seem
to save their files/settings? How can I...say allow one of the
limited users the ability to use a given application and save their
own files without having to go through the secondary logon dialogue
box("Run with different credentials")?

Thanks
 
Most applications weren't designed for this type of multi-user environment.
Such applications need to be installed in each specific user's account to
whom you wish to grant access.

First, be sure the account to which you wish to grant access is set to
administrator and not limited. Install the applications to the same folder
in which it was originally installed. This will look the same as one
install on your hard drive but create the pointers necessary for this user
to have access to the application.

Once the installation is complete, you can return the account to its limited
status if that is what you want and the user should still have access.
